Impressive design and conceptual interpretation of LOVE. The ring may be a bit prickly. Yet every rose has its thorn, right?

Design Concept:
"Life is simple but bee-autiful!"
I am bee-lover and collect all bee stuff in my life. I would love to create bee design and let people know how lovely bees are.
The meaning bee-hind BEE is "Bee yourself!! No one can take your dignity!!"
Jury Panels' comment:
Design is meaningful with the word 'LOVE' forming the signature pattern of a bee. "Bee yourself" is definitely important on our journey of design.
3rd Prize Winner

我們是一團潛水教練,但其中一位隊員決定移民,故此希望可以做一個能代表大家的飾物,可以每日帶在身上,無論大家去到多遠,也能夠連在一起。
蛙鞋正好是我們不可缺少的用品,亦是把我們連在一起,別具意義的工具。
Jury Panels' comment:
The design, specially made for the unique story of friendship, gave lots of warm personal touch. It would be better if the design was not so direct.
DESIGN THEME: A TOUCHING STORY
The true preciousness of a jewelry is the touching story it tells. Narrate a touching story through your jewelry design.
In this 3D Printable Jewelry Design Competition, you are the teller of your touching story and the very designer of your jewelry in Sterling Silver. You can decide the form, the style, the details, and of course, the meanings it contains. This challenge is about demonstrating how jewelry can unveil creativeness and tells a touching story taking advantage of 3D printing technology! It is also a golden opportunity to let everyone be their own designer, helping you to realize the dream of design.
Design your favorite type of jewelry. Any types of jewelry in one piece (no interlock parts, no more than one part) will be accepted while the material in your design is limited to pure sterling silver, in order words, no gems, stones nor other metals.
The key of designing is to be creative, do not limit your imagination! The design is now your personal diary, follow your heart and let it tell the most touching story!
You are required to submit a 3D model computer file (.STL or .OBJ) of your design and write your design description only! Simple as that!
Whether you are artist, designer, maker or student, everyone living or working in Hong Kong & Macau will be eligible to participate in this contest and unleash your own potential!
